Gender Inclusion

The University of South Alabama is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse
campus community in which our students can confidently pursue their academic and extracurricular
experiences. The University continually monitors relevant developments related to
policies on gender identity.

Title IX prohibits sex discrimination in schools and other educational programs that
receive federal funding. Sex discrimination occurs when persons are excluded from
participation in, or denied the benefits of, any educational program or activity on
the basis of their sex, including employment. Sex discrimination includes materially
adverse treatment or action based on a person’s biological sex, pregnancy status,
gender, gender expression, gender identity or sexual identity and/or failure to conform
to stereotypical notions of masculinity and femininity (so called “gender stereotyping”).
Title IX prohibits sex discrimination based on sexual identity.
